The Paulus Institute will sponsor the fourth annual Nellie Gray Mass at 4:00 pm on Friday, January 22, 2016, at Washington’s St. Mary Mother of God Church, which was the late Miss Gray’s place of Sunday worship. Friday afternoon’s Mass for the intentions of the unborn, on whose behalf Miss Gray worked tirelessly until her death in 2012, will come at the conclusion of the annual March for Life in Washington. The Most Reverend Edward J. Slattery, Bishop of Tulsa, will offer a pontifical Solemn High Mass from the faldstool.

St. Mary Mother of God Church is located at 727 Fifth Street NW in Chinatown. This Mass, as well as other local pro-life Masses on January 22, has been added to our seven-day schedule. Additional Masses in observance of the annual March for Life can also be found on the Juventutem DC Facebook page.
